Unknown bomber-unknown war

Hi all,
Found this photo at a flea market and my arabic is not that good... perhaps a Forum member can translate...? And what kind of Bomber do we have here?
I guess it's a post-2WW photo, 1948 Arab-Israeli War?

Thanks for your input!
Hans

Too small image but look like Wellington.

Definitely Wellington, the bombs are early war British, the scenery looks fairly English too, what can be seen of it.

Thanks for your replies! Now, why an arabic text and what does it mean? Probably nothing exciting, but still...

My guess is that it is a Wellington based in England early WWII.
